Groninger Museum was founded in 1894. The opening of its new building in 1994 caused a sensation and it has since established a reputation of being among the finest museums in the nation.
The radically modernist structures forming the Groninger Museum stand in a canal opposite a railway station consist of three main pavilions: a silver cylindrical building designed by Philippe Starck, a yellow tower by Alessandro Mendini, and a pale blue deconstructivist space by Coop Himmelb(l)au. A bridge that connects the museum to the train station is part of a cycling and walking path to the central city.
The architecture's futuristic and colourful style echos the Italian designs of the Memphis Group. Mendini, a former member of the firm who is noted for his furniture and industrial designs, was asked by museum director Frans Haks in 1987 to conceive the new museum. Haks wanted something extravagant and insisted on non-architects to create the conceptual studies. American artist Frank Stella was originally approached to design one of the pavilions, however, his plan turned-out to be too expensive because he wanted his structure completely built out of Teflon. The municipality then invited Coop Himmelb(l)au to replace him for the commission.

The Groninger Museum is built in the water of the Verbindings Canal in Groningen, a town in the northern Netherlands. The new Groninger Museum is not merely a casing for art, it is a work of art in itself. The ultimate design by the Italian Alessandro Mendini and the three guest architects Philippe Starck, Michele de Lucchi, and Coop Himmelb[l]au was completed in 1994.
The museum shows modern and contemporary art, fashion and design, as well as historic arts.

Photographed at the 'Other Shores. Russian Art in New York. 1924' exhibition, September 2021 - January 2022. Museum of Russian Impressionism, Moscow, Russia.
Isaac Brodsky was once considered one of the apologists of socialist realism: the portraits of Lenin, Stalin and other leaders of the party elite of the USSR made him famous. But for the exhibition in the United States, other, early works, devoid of political connotations, were deliberately selected. In total, the artist sent in eight of his works, one of which was acquired during a traveling exhibition in Birmingham, Alabama.
Rus: Исаак Бродский в своё время считался одним из апологетов соцреализма: славу ему составили портреты Ленина, Сталина и других деятелей партийной элиты СССР. Но для выставки в США намеренно были отобраны другие, ранние работы, лишённые политического подтекста. Всего художник отправил восемь своих работ, одна из которых была приобретена во время пребывания передвижной выставки в Бирмингеме, штат Алабама.

Taken at the 'BEAUTIFUL LIFE MAGAZINE' art exhibition.
Выставка посвящена первому российскому глянцевому журналу «Столица и усадьба», выходившему с 1913 по 1917 год.
Издание, созданное по образцу британских журналов Country Style и Tatler, было адресовано состоятельной публике. Лучшая из возможных бумага, цветные иллюстрации, остроумные житейские наблюдения, статьи о балах, охотах, путешествиях, великокняжеских помолвках и свадьбах, драгоценностях, великолепных интерьерах и богатых частных коллекциях - всё, что привлекало читателей.
Журнал «Столица и усадьба» удостаивал вниманием как известных мастеров живописи и графиков, так и начинающих художников. Полотна популярных при дворе портретистов - Николая Богданова-Бельского, Николая Беккера, Константина Маковского - соседствовали в журнале с модернистскими экспериментами Льва Бруни, Натана Альтмана, Бориса Григорьева и Николая Калмакова.
В экспозиции собраны произведения, которые или появлялись на страницах журнала, или подробно описывались критиками в рецензиях на выставки.
Кураторы проследили судьбу многих полотен, обсуждаемых сто лет назад высшим светом. Некоторые из работ так и не удалось разыскать - увы, не исключено, что они погибли безвозвратно.
Специальный проект на 3-м этаже музея предлагает нам поразмышлять о том, какую форму может принять идея «красивой жизни» (la dolce vita) в современном искусстве. Модные образы и светские ритуалы, шик и блеск повседневности, ирония и отсылка к гламуру и глянцу нашли отражение в работах Владимира Дубосарского и Александра Виноградова, Ольги Тобрелутс и Владислава Мамышева-Монро, Кирилла Кто и Миши Никатина. Посетители смогли увидеть работы из фондов Ruarts, галереи Anna Nova, галереи «Триумф» и важных частных коллекций.

Alors Pilate prit Jésus et le fit flageller.
Et les soldats ayant tressé une couronne d'épines, la mirent sur sa tête, et le revêtirent d'un manteau de pourpre;
Puis s'approchant de lui, ils disaient: "Salut, roi des Juifs!" et ils le souffletaient.
Pilate sortit encore une fois et dit aux Juifs: "Voici que je vous l'amène dehors, afin que vous sachiez que je ne trouve en lui aucun crime."
Jésus sortit donc, portant la couronne d'épines et le manteau d'écarlate, et Pilate leur dit: "Voici l'homme."

● Most likely it was this picture that the artist sent to New York for The Russian art exhibition in 1924.
●The painting was acquired from the Kustodiev family by the Russian physicist, Nobel laureate Pyotr Kapitsa in 1936 and until the auction was the property of the Kapitsa collection in Moscow.
●It's interesting that Boris Kustodiev created several versions of the painting 'The Coachman (Reckless driver)'. One well-known version, dated 1920, is in the Isaac Brodsky Apartment Museum in St. Petersburg, and the Berdyansk Art Museum has a watercolor 'Reckless driver' by Kustodiev with a similar plot, also dated 1920.
Rus:
●Вероятнее всего именно эту картину художник отправил в Нью-Йорк на выставку русского искусства 1924 года.
●В 1936 году картина была приобретена у семьи Кустодиевых русским физиком, лауреатом Нобелевской премии Петром Капицей и вплоть до аукционных торгов являлась собственность коллекции Капицы в Москве.
●Интересно, что Борисом Кустодиевым было создано несколько выриантов картины "Извозчик (Лихач)". Один известный вариант, датированный 1920 годом, находится в музее-квартире художника Исаака Бродского в Санкт-Петербурге, а в Бердянском художественном музее хранится акварельный вариант 'Лихача', также датированный 1920 годом

The idea of holding the 1923 exhibition and sale of Russian art in America occured for quit mundane reasons. After the revolution, the civil war and policies of war communism, artists found themselves working in difficult conditions. Unable to rely on the authorities for help, they began a daring venture of their owl: they resolved to assemble the exhibition themselves, print a catalogue and find the buyers and clients lacking at home in foreign climes. The initiative group including Igor Grabar, Sergey Vinogradov, Konstantin Somov and others invited one hundred prominent Russian artists to take part. More than a thousand works were loaded on a ship and headed for the lights of Manhattan, a destination altogether new to the exhibition organizers.
Идея провести выставку-продажу русского искусства в Америке в 1923 году возникла по вполне житейским причинам. Последствия революции, гражданской войны и политики военного коммунизма поставили художников в тяжелые условия. Не рассчитывая на помощь со стороны властей, они решились на явную авантюру: самостоятельно собрать экспозицию, напечатать каталог и найти за океаном покупателей и заказчиков, которых не осталось на родине. Инициативная группа куда вошли Игорь Грабарь, Сергей Виноградов, Константин Сомов и ещё несколько человек, пригласила к участию в выставке за океаном сто ведущих русских мастеров. Более тысячи произведений были погружены на корабль и отправились навстречу огням Манхэттена, где никто из организаторов выставки ни разу до этого не был.

Stygimoloch is a dome-headed dinosaur that was named in 1983. It has a small dome
on its head and clusters of large spikes along the back of its skull. New research
suggests that Stygimoloch might not be its own kind of dinosaur, but rather a young
Pachycephalosaurus (PACK-ee-seff-ah-low-SORE-us) whose dome would have grown
larger, while its spikes shrunk, as it got older.
People viewing "Paris Street; Rainy Day, 1877" by Gustave Caillebotte, one of the first major works of art you see when entering the museum (note a couple of Renoir's in the background).
I always think it's odd that people photograph paintings in a museum. Even if you're Ansel Adams reincarnated, what you photograph isn't going to be nearly as good as the catalog for sale in the gift shop (and besides, support your favorite art museum).
What I think is interesting is looking at people looking at art. And so, during a recent trip to the Art Institute of Chicago, I did just that and caught people looking at what are some of the most popular and/or my favorite pieces at this great American museum.
Hands in pocket, contemplating three of Claude Monet's stacks of wheat paintings (Mary and I did our honeymoon in Chicago 25 years ago, and the Art Institute had a show featuring all of Monet's paintings in this series; we have had a print of the one on the left hanging over our bed ever since.)

September 26–December 31, 2008
Culminating in 2008, a restoration of the Guggenheim's iconic Frank Lloyd Wright building’s newly restored façade was unveiled with a site-specific light projection by artist Jenny Holzer. Large-scale projected texts suffused the exterior with a play of light and changing language, transforming it into an environment for looking, discussing, and gathering. Watch the exhibition video.
